The CX-112 is a true condenser microphone with a contemporary design and excellent performance characteristics. With a rich, full-bodied sound delivered by its one-inch gold sputtered capsule, the CX-112 is a single-patterned cardioid condenser that serves a variety of applications for project studios, professional audio production, and live stage performances.
Delivering a smooth uniform frequency response from 20 Hz - 20 kHz, the CX-112 is equipped with switches for 10 dB pad and a bass roll-off. With 10 dB pad engaged, the CX-112 is capable of sound pressure levels of 145 dB, allowing the microphone to be used successfully on everything from subtle acoustic instruments in a studio to screaming guitar cabs on a concert stage.
The CX-112, which is designed with a discreet low noise preamp circuitry, operates on phantom power of 48-52 volts. Optimum results will be achieved by using the CX-112 with a high quality mic preamplifier and premium quality microphone cable.
